Infrascale File Sharing

OVERVIEW

Control file sharing and collaboration

Create and manage your customers’ cloud:
Free public cloud sync services undermine an organization’s IT department and their ability to manage security consistently within a large business. By instituting a private cloud, your customer will be aware of the architecture of a virtualized environment.

Infrascale security doesn’t stop at encryption

Control the tools you use: Infrascale’s file sharing module empowers and enables you to allow your customers’ IT managers to take control of who accesses a document or folder, who can share, and who can preview each file. IT managers can set up initial rules and modify them as corporate needs change.

Control usage and permissions: Department managers can use the permissions, monitoring, and reporting flexibility of the private cloud to observe employee behavior and improve productivity. The IT department can grant certain administrative permissions to department managers, and allow them to monitor employee activities through notifications and reporting.

Manage notifications: Manage and regulate group notifications, file sharing, file access, commenting, and the amount of storage used by each licensed user.

Accurate Audit Reporting

While government compliance regulations may vary by industry, audit reports are a common requirement. Creating an online collaboration environment with software that allows for audit trail reporting allows you to avoid the stealth cloud and implement regular reporting rules.

Make collaboration accessible

Infrascale makes collaboration work: Groupware doesn’t have to be limited to a specific department or identified as a solution to improve the productivity of individuals in unique roles. Collaboration in the secure cloud can be used by an entire organization and is inexpensive to deploy. Deployment on a physical or virtual machine can allow thousands of employees to access the same data, securely, with the same collaboration software.

Today’s businesses must work worldwide: Employees across departments, around the world, need not swap multiple versions of files to complete a presentation or process flow – or even use email to work together on projects in real-time. Making Infrascale available to your customers’ organizations will reduce the time to communicate an idea and complete a project.

Secure File and Folder Syncing

End-to-end encrypted syncing: Infrascale allows each licensed user to securely sync files from multiple folders on their desktop. Once the sync begins, Infrascale will encrypt the folders and files before sending them to the cloud. While in transit data remains encrypted and is sent through a secured 256-bit SSL tunnel. Once it is in the cloud, it is encrypted again. It remains encrypted at 256-bit AES for its life in the cloud.

Access and share synced folders: Once a folder or file is safe and secure in the cloud, users will be able to view, edit, and comment on data in the cloud. Eliminate the restrictions of email by sending secure links to large files with Infrascale.

Unlimited Versioning

Regulation compliant unlimited versioning:
Infrascale allows complete versioning and archiving control. Access files by version history and upload new versions of files. Deletion of previous versions is not required, but it is optional.

Notifications

Keep up to date with activities: Using notifications, department managers can monitor team activities and manage projects between individuals. Notifications are available for file sharing, downloading, commenting, and editing.

Large File Sharing

Some important files are just too big for email: Infrascale is a secure alternative to free file-sending services. Your customers’ files can be sent to clients or associates who may not have direct access to the secure cloud, but still need to receive a document from a user with an account. Eliminate the size of EDB files on an Exchange server by sending large files securely with Infrascale.

COLLABORATION

Collaboration with Infrascale File Sharing

Truly secure cloud collaboration for your entire customer base

Infrascale makes collaboration work: Groupware doesn’t have to be limited to a specific department or identified as a solution to improve the productivity of individuals in unique roles. Collaboration in the secure cloud can be used by an entire organization and is inexpensive to deploy. Deployment on a physical or virtual machine can allow thousands of users to access the same data, securely, with the same collaboration software.

Today’s businesses must work worldwide: Your customers’ employees across departments, around the world, need not swap multiple versions of files to complete a presentation or process flow – or even use email to work together on projects in real-time. Reduce the time to communicate an idea and complete a project by making Infrascale available to your entire customer base.

Document Collaboration

Simple and secure document collaboration: Infrascale was built with secure document collaboration at the core of its functionality. Users can work together on projects by syncing or manually uploading documents, sharing secure links to files, accessing files anywhere in the world, securely editing and previewing files, and commenting on files all within the Infrascale file sharing module.

Sync with a desktop folder

Share files and folders

Send secure links

Preview documents in nearly any file format

Edit documents in the cloud

Centralized administrative management: All of these features can be regulated on a user by user basis by an administrator. These actions can also be tracked by a manager or team leader with the group notifications tool.

Open source plug-ins: Plug-ins are available to view all MS Office documents, PDFs, CAD files, and image files.

Eliminate File Sharing Via Email

Securely send encrypted files: Many teams need to share large files across offices or even within the same offices. This is often not permitted by email services. Infrascale replaces single-use file sharing systems or free and unsecure file sharing solutions by allowing users to create secure permalinks to individual files and folders.

SECURITY

How is Infrascale File Sharing Different?

Infrascale File Sharing encrypts your files from the beginning, all the way to the end.

End-to-end encryption: Infrascale’s unique end-to-end encryption system is unlike anything found in the sync and share universe. While similar tools may offer a one or two layers of encryption, Infrascale offers triple encryption through this unique process:

Infrascale triggers encryption, through the acknowledgement of the user, when a sync starts.

The data then remains encrypted on its quick trip to the cloud.

Finally when stored, in your cloud or ours, it is encrypted again at rest in the data center.

As seen below, the Infrascale difference is that files are encrypted at 256bit AES, transferred over a 256bit SSL, and finally remain ecrypted upon storage. With Infrascale’s UltraSafe option, a separate passphrase is used to generate an encryption key which is stored locally, only known to the user. UltraSafe is an ideal option for users who have files with sensitive information. UltraSafe files stay confidential, they cannot be accessed by anyone without the privately held key, not even the account administrator.

PRIVATE CLOUD DEPLOYMENT

Private Cloud Deployments

Your technology, hardware and your software solutions are all assets used to make your customer offerings more expansive. Make your data center and your network the ultimate asset by using it to host your Infrascale deployment.

How will deployment work?

Deploy Infrascale as a Virtual Appliance

Infrascale File Sharing can be deployed in an existing data center, on a server that can be repurposed for the installation of a virtual machine. In this environment, Infrascale can capitalize on the horsepower already contained within the existing data center and deliver an internal application as a service to employees. Conserve the energy of the data center and IT staff by installing the software as a virtual appliance in a simple three step process.

SHAREPOINT INTEGRATION

SharePoint Integration

Infrascale aims to add enterprise-grade file sharing and collaboration capabilities to businesses of any size that are reliant upon SharePoint’s document management functionality. Integration is simple and will add tools that enhance productivity and security.

Encryption

Infrascale will encrypt data sent to a public or private cloud, in any network. Data will be encrypted at 256 bit SSL and 256 bit AES through our unique double blind encryption system.

Desktop Sync

Infrascale’s desktop app allows users to select which files and folders sync to the cloud. Everything put in the sync folder goes directly to the cloud, users can sync as many as they need.

Mobile access

Access files made available for sharing with native Infrascale applications on Android, iPhone, and Windows Phone. Access from anywhere in the world.

Creating secure BYOD policies in a SharePoint Organization

Sometimes your customers just don’t want files to be able to be shared. Infrascale is unlike many file sharing tools, in that the user can select to never make it possible to share a file. This may seem antithetical to the solution, but in fact, it is necessary. Securing files in a firm means that its administrators must embrace the idea that some data just shouldn’t be able to be shared.

But when files are shared, they should be watched closely. Infrascale enables data stored in SharePoint to be monitored. Your customers’ designated administrators will have access to device management tools as well as reporting on file usage and account usage.

Ensure that your customers’ BYOD policies are capable of being enforced when you enhance SharePoint with Infrascale.

Device management: Ability to force approval of devices, even by browser, for each user. Each time a user attempts to access Infrascale File Sharing from a new location, their access will be prevented until the device or browser is approved. Approval can be revoked at any time.

File monitoring: Monitor downloads, uploads, and modifications made to files across an entire organization. Download these reports for audit trail purposes.

How SharePoint content will appear

Once SharePoint has been connected to your Infrascale instance by the administrator – SharePoint content appears as native content.

User permissions: Users can read, download, preview, upload, comment, and share SharePoint content as if it was native Infrascale content.

SharePoint Linked Folders: Connects SharePoint data with mobile, and desktop apps. This allows mobile workers to easily sync SharePoint content down to their local device of choice.

Device management: Access can be controlled by the built-in device approval system – that allows the administrator to determine which users can use which devices with the software.

COMPETITIVE COMPARISON

Infrascale File Sharing Competitive Comparison

Infrascale File Sharing was created to keep files safe – no matter where users are sharing them or storing them. What makes Infrascale truly different is its security: unlike many competitive solutions, Infrascale encrypts data end-to-end, starting with private key encryption on the client side. From there, Infrascale sends data through a 256 bit SSL tunnel and encrypts it again at 256 bit AES encryption in the cloud. Infrascale can also be deployed in any network and behind the firewall.
